On Earth Day 2011

This is the sign we see when we take our yard waste to be chopped up and made into compost at the recycling place out in the desert:

As Beez says, these rattlesnakes must be extra-extra snakey, as they warrant the two-word title of Rattle Snakes. I don't know--I'm picturing a desert cha-cha rhythm band, complete with gourd rattles and tambourines. I'll let you know if I see them.

Cunning, I wish you hadn't said that. I can be all jokey about rattlers I have never run into but in my worst imaginings they were always down there on the ground. Good grief, this is a picture that will never leave my mind--waist-deep in rattlers!!!

About Me

Who knew that retirement would be so much fun? I loved working with kids and books and technology as a school librarian, but now I love having time to get together with friends, and to enjoy walking, going to the gym, taking photos, reading, researching, blogging, knitting, and gardening.
